8 Green Knapp is an incredibly light and airy house with immaculate accommodation and fabulous views. The current owners have thoughtfully extended the property to the side, creating a remarkable open-plan family/entertainment room. This impressive space is flooded with natural light, courtesy of large windows at the front and rear, as well as skylights overhead. A key feature is the triple fold door that opens up to offer unobstructed views of the rolling countryside, seamlessly blending the indoor and outdoor living experience. The kitchen is fitted to a high standard with oak worktops, and integral appliances including a mid-level oven and grill, fridge freezer, induction hob and dishwasher.

The ground floor also features a cozy sitting room with an ornate fireplace, adding to the cottage's character. In addition there is a utility room with plumbing for washing facilities, and a cloakroom. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, including a master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom. The further three bedrooms are serviced by the family bathroom which is fitted to a high standard. Originally built around 1880, this Hamstone property has been lovingly restored and extended by the current owners, who had intended to make it their long-term home. Due to changing circumstances, the property is now offered at an exciting stage of development, allowing the new owners to put their personal stamp on the final touches.

A driveway leads into the property up to an expansive gravel parking area. There are neatly tended lawned gardens which wrap around the house giving sun throughout the entire day. Beyond the perimeter of the grounds there are beautiful views of fields and countryside beyond.
